install reporting service 2005

Hi
I tried to install reporting service after i had installed sql server 2005, I find reporting service checkbox is disabled, so i can not install it.
Why it is disabled, and how i install reporting service.
thanks

Do you have IIS installed on the machine? If not installed, RS will not install either.

Also, because you have a SQL instance already installed, you have two options.

1. Install RS as another instance and you will get a full install and the check box should be enabled.

2. Install RS as a files only installation for the existing SQL Instance. Then use the configuration tool to configure RS to work with the current instance of SQL Server.

|||Hi Brad
That solved the problem. I installed IIS , and succeded in instaling RS within a named sqlsever 2005 service.
I tried to create a simple report using RS wizard in VS 2005 to test the reporting service , and when finishing the wizard the error message:
"Exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' " was thrown , and i can not generate the report.
Pls, how can i resolve the problem.
Thanks.

|||I resolved the exception error thanks to the post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=573569&SiteID=1&mode=1

after reading the post , I downloaded the refactor software . I tried to install it

, but it could not be installed due to error:

"Error 1001: The SavedState Dictionary contains inconsistent data and

might have corrupted."

I traced the propblem until i found that DXCore (software provided by same

company of refactor) was the reason.

I removed DXcore , and every thing in reporting service in visual studio 2005

become working well !!!..

Is it a bug in DXcore ?

Install problems on one system

Hi;
I have VMWare on a test computer and installed the dev version of SqlServer
2005 fine on the frist VM partition.
However, on the second it won't let me check the reporting services and
requires a strong password. Why?

Cubicle Wars - http://www.windwardreports.com/film.htmHi,
For further research, I would like to know:
1. Do your two VMWare partions have the same version of Windows OS?
2. What's the Windows OS edition?
3. What will happen if you specify a strong password for it?
4. Could you send me related system event logs to me
(changliw@.microsoft.com) ?
Sincerely yours,

1. Yes - same everything.
2. Windows 2003 with all service packs.
3. I did not do that as I want the same p/w we use for everything on the
test system.
4. Will get tomorrow (I'm home now).

For question 4 all it has is:

Thanks for your response.
By default, strong password is a policy in Windows 2003. From your
description, I understand that your SQL Server 2005 ran with mixed
authentication mode and you log on the SQL 2005 with sa account.
I would like to know whether or not you can log on the SQL Server 2005 with
sa account which password is weak. Which place did this issue occurs?
To let me better understand this issue, I would like you could mail me
(changliw@.microsoft.com) a screenshot of your issue.
In SQL Server 2005, you can modify sa password and cancel the strong
password policy via:
Log on into Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio with sysadmin;
Expand the Security folder;
Expand the Logins folder;
Right click sa account and click Properties on the pop menu;
Cancel the selection of "Enforce password policy";
Modify the sa password if you want to.
Sincerely yours,
Charles Wang
Microsoft Online Community Support|||Hello;
Not exactly. I have not installed Sql Server 2005 yet because of these two
problems.
1) It has greyed out reporting services and I need to install that.
2) It wants a strong password during install. How can I set it to not
require that during install?
What is weird is this is a Windows 2003 test system and I have another
identical test system that did not have these problems. The only difference
is the other system has IIS installed.
So, how can I fix this?

Reporting Services requires IIS - that's how it delivers the reports...

http://www.realsqlguy.com|||Yes, Reporting Service is a web-based application. I recommend that Install
IIS 6.0 first and then try again.

Install MSDE without Microsoft .NET Framework

Hi
I want to include MSDE in my apps installation.
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE 2000)
Deployment Toolkit (Release Candidate) from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en
I have looked into the deployment toolkit which need Microsoft .NET
Framework.
But my client does not want to install the .NET Framework.
How can I do it?
Many thanks
Ken
You have two options if you can't use the loader:
1) Create your own loader using a non-managed language (C++, Delphi, VB6).
2) You can purchase a third party installation package

Installation Date/Version Numbers

Hi
I am very new to SQL Server and am trying to gain some general information
about it. What I am interetsed in is gaining either an installation date from
the software and/or a current version that is running? Is it possible to get
this information?
Many thanks,
David Saunders
Hi David
I don't know if there is an installation date held in the registry, but for
SQL 2005 the installation log directory (...\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG) may be
an indication. For the current product verion use SELECT @.@.VERSION or use
SERVERPROPERTY as described in
http://sqlserver2000.databases.aspfaq.com/how-do-i-know-which-version-of-sql-server-i-m-running.html
If you are running multiple instances on one machine you will need to check
each instance.

installation bug found SQL Server 2005

Hi!

I had the earlier builds and this did not happen but:

just downloaded SQL Server 2005 (RTM) from msdn

When selecting to install integration services (amoungst other options), whilst installating it gives me an error saying I do not have admin privledges to install one of the .NET libraries/runtime files? I cannot remember the file name at all im afraid.

Error: 0x80131501

So I cancelled the install and just installed everything but the integration services... and it works fine now. I do not know if this is a bug but just thought I would let you knowHello.

My fix is the same as yours. Install a little less at the time. Do it in two steps.

sqlxml4.msi?

The error message is (obviously) wrong. I have seen this when the system has memory starvation.

Do you have enough ram?

Are you running inside Virtual PC/Server on a newly installed image that has not yet grown its swap space?|||Hi!

You would be insane to install it on a VPC system lol

I have more than enough RAM - 512MB, I have also put in an extra 512MB but makes no difference.

Any other solutions? This issue should be sorted out before the official ship date.

|||Greetings

> You would be insane to install it on a VPC system lol

You must know something I don't.

> Any other solutions? This issue should be sorted out before the official ship date.

I tried to raise the subject in other channels with SEPT CTP, but interest is slim.
My guess is that it is a Windows Installer bug, and ideally should be solved by another team.

I guess it would help if you gave a few more details about your environment.

btw, some times litening is better than laughing,

i wouldnt say it is an installer bug. It may make sense but i dont believe it is.

interest should be huge and i am sure it will be as when shipping a product which does not install is a bug fallback for the product|||

Hello again
Excuse me if I offended you, I was trying to help.

Virtualization
Using virtual server has been Microsofts own choice for working with the betas. I have seen it used by three of the leading "Yukon" experts in the world (one of them hatet virtual server). I myself have run "Yukon" versions in both VPC and VS for a years time. Lol as much as you want.

Installation issue
Well, we didn't get enough momentum on it. The bits are in production now.
Your error code is COR_E_SYSTEM. It generally is declared in the exception base class and means "Exception for this error not implemented". Without an error message it is hard to read anything from it.

Environment
I must have been unclear. I ment enough information about you hardware and software to reproduce your bug. Obviously, everybody else is not having your problem, so more information about your environment is needed.

anything else?|||OK. Good for you. No caveats that I can see.
What is the virus/virus killer situation?

There is no doupt that there are people with the same hardware configuration that has successfully installed all parts of SQL Server 2005, or you wouldn't be the only one screaming.

I haven't tried it with Office SP2, which leads me towards thinking there is a (remote) chance that it could be version panic with SQLXML, Windows Installer or something. (I know there is something called side by side execution, it's just that I am not convinsed)

Have you tried re-running setup and install (just) Integration Services on top of the rest?

If it does not work, you could try deinstalling any data access components optionally installed with office or office SP2 but it's a long shot.

If you had added 512MB RAM, you could comfortably run SQL in VPC or Virtual Server.

BTW: did you (in your first install) do a cutom install and include the samples?|||

Virus killer situation is none on that computer as it is not connectable to the internet. But I did scan the system anyway using Norton Anti Virus (latest definations etc...) from another computer and there are no viruses - so we can take this out the equation.

I did re-run setup and I was able to select the integration services alone (after deselecting it the first time I installed SQL Server 2005) and it did install fine.

I have also tried to run setup and choosing all the options, including integration services and the same problem happened again.

I will try to de-install data access components and see what happens.

I also have another issue which is in the SQL Server tools forum, relating to profiler and I think that the error of that is related to data access components... hopefully If i remove the data access components and perhaps re-install it I can solve that problem and who knows, this problem too with the installation of SQL Server 2005

I will update you with the steps to be done on my end...

P.S - just checked, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition is up for grabs, it was said it would be next week but its up now! So, I will see if i encounter a problem with that setup process

OK, well I am installing SQL Server 2005 ENT edition and it still produces the error when installing integration services (selected all options except reporting services)

installation bug found SQL Server 2005

Hi!

I had the earlier builds and this did not happen but:

just downloaded SQL Server 2005 (RTM) from msdn

When selecting to install integration services (amoungst other options), whilst installating it gives me an error saying I do not have admin privledges to install one of the .NET libraries/runtime files? I cannot remember the file name at all im afraid.

Error: 0x80131501

So I cancelled the install and just installed everything but the integration services... and it works fine now. I do not know if this is a bug but just thought I would let you knowHello.

My fix is the same as yours. Install a little less at the time. Do it in two steps.

sqlxml4.msi?

The error message is (obviously) wrong. I have seen this when the system has memory starvation.

Do you have enough ram?

Are you running inside Virtual PC/Server on a newly installed image that has not yet grown its swap space?|||Hi!

You would be insane to install it on a VPC system lol

I have more than enough RAM - 512MB, I have also put in an extra 512MB but makes no difference.

Any other solutions? This issue should be sorted out before the official ship date.

My guess is that it is a Windows Installer bug, and ideally should be solved by another team.

I guess it would help if you gave a few more details about your environment.

Hello again
Excuse me if I offended you, I was trying to help.

Virtualization
Using virtual server has been Microsofts own choice for working with the betas. I have seen it used by three of the leading "Yukon" experts in the world (one of them hatet virtual server). I myself have run "Yukon" versions in both VPC and VS for a years time. Lol as much as you want.

Installation issue
Well, we didn't get enough momentum on it. The bits are in production now.
Your error code is COR_E_SYSTEM. It generally is declared in the exception base class and means "Exception for this error not implemented". Without an error message it is hard to read anything from it.

Environment
I must have been unclear. I ment enough information about you hardware and software to reproduce your bug. Obviously, everybody else is not having your problem, so more information about your environment is needed.

|||Sure

SQL Server 2000 Enterprise edition (MSDN)

Office 2003 (with sp2)

anything else?|||OK. Good for you. No caveats that I can see.
What is the virus/virus killer situation?

There is no doupt that there are people with the same hardware configuration that has successfully installed all parts of SQL Server 2005, or you wouldn't be the only one screaming.

I haven't tried it with Office SP2, which leads me towards thinking there is a (remote) chance that it could be version panic with SQLXML, Windows Installer or something. (I know there is something called side by side execution, it's just that I am not convinsed)

Have you tried re-running setup and install (just) Integration Services on top of the rest?

If it does not work, you could try deinstalling any data access components optionally installed with office or office SP2 but it's a long shot.

If you had added 512MB RAM, you could comfortably run SQL in VPC or Virtual Server.

BTW: did you (in your first install) do a cutom install and include the samples?|||

Virus killer situation is none on that computer as it is not connectable to the internet. But I did scan the system anyway using Norton Anti Virus (latest definations etc...) from another computer and there are no viruses - so we can take this out the equation.

I did re-run setup and I was able to select the integration services alone (after deselecting it the first time I installed SQL Server 2005) and it did install fine.

I have also tried to run setup and choosing all the options, including integration services and the same problem happened again.

I will try to de-install data access components and see what happens.

I also have another issue which is in the SQL Server tools forum, relating to profiler and I think that the error of that is related to data access components... hopefully If i remove the data access components and perhaps re-install it I can solve that problem and who knows, this problem too with the installation of SQL Server 2005

I will update you with the steps to be done on my end...

Virus killer situation is none on that computer as it is not connectable to the internet. But I did scan the system anyway using Norton Anti Virus (latest definations etc...) from another computer and there are no viruses - so we can take this out the equation.

I did re-run setup and I was able to select the integration services alone (after deselecting it the first time I installed SQL Server 2005) and it did install fine.

I have also tried to run setup and choosing all the options, including integration services and the same problem happened again.

I will try to de-install data access components and see what happens.

I also have another issue which is in the SQL Server tools forum, relating to profiler and I think that the error of that is related to data access components... hopefully If i remove the data access components and perhaps re-install it I can solve that problem and who knows, this problem too with the installation of SQL Server 2005

I will update you with the steps to be done on my end...

thanks

P.S - just checked, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition is up for grabs, it was said it would be next week but its up now! So, I will see if i encounter a problem with that setup process

OK, well I am installing SQL Server 2005 ENT edition and it still produces the error when installing integration services (selected all options except reporting services)

Error:

Failed to install and configure assemblies: C:\program files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\tasks\Microsoft.SqlServer.MSMQTask.dll in the COM+ catalog.

Error: -2146233087.

Error Message: Unknown Error 0x80131501

Error description: You must have administrator credentials to perform this task. Contact your system administrator for assistance.

Now, I am installing, and logged in all the time, as administrator! So I have admin privledges no doubt.

Even after following the help link file for this error message, there is still the problem. It tells me to make sure that the DTC is started on the Network Service Account, which it is, and to restart the service and try again... did this but I still get the error.

|||I also have this installation problem installing Enterprise edition (with admin priveleges.)

Again, no problem with DTC running.

I do have SQL 2000 installed.|||

Hi all-
I'm new here, but found this when searching for the error I recieved.
I just attended the Launch event here in Chicago yesterday, and decided to install on my home system. I recieved the similar errors as discussed here (trying to install all features.

The error was [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The default full-text language is not supported by the full-text search component.. Refer to the server error logs and Setup logs for detailed error information.

I'll try without integration services too

Install CAL's

Hi
I have recently installed SQL 2005. I need to add 15 SQL cals to the server
and are unsure on how to do so. Could somebody point me in the right
direction.
Thanks in advance
There is no something "installing CALs".
Just keep them safe and use them when Microsoft or BSA asks for them.

Instalation of SP4 on MSDE RevA

Hi
I have problems with installing SP4 on MSDE Revision A (I'm using
the SP4 for MSDE) which is a named instance with mixed mode authentication
enabled. It's on Windows XP Professional OEM Polish version with SP2 install
ed.
The instance is using MSSQL_INAME Windows account. I have MS Visual Studio
2005 Beta 2 installed on this machine along with SQL Server 2005 CTP
Tools (no SQL Server 2005 instance installed).
The SP4 instalation is run using 'sa' database login (from Windows
'Administrator' account).
The log fragment is:

Some additional info:
The error message, which is reported in install log in Polish
("Nie zostao wykonane mapowanie midzy nazwami kont a identyfikatorami
zabezpiecze.") is a Windows error message, and in English it is:
"No mapping between account names and security IDs was done."
(use "net nethelp 1332" command from Windows command line to check the
message in your Windows' language).
Results of my searches suggest that the error may occure when some
Windows account name can't be translated to it's SID because the
account name is misspelled or was removed or the domain controller
is unavailable. The problem is that I have never typed any account
name by hand (so it's not a spelling problem) nor removed any
Windows account (it's possible that some installer did, but the accounts
related to SQL instance are in place), and the Windows is not (and was
not) under domain control. I found a post which describes how to check
which account name could not be resolved and I'll try it in the evening
(I do not have access to that computer now). I'll post the results.
Hilarion|||Hello Hilarion,
I know little about the Polish. To troubleshoot the issue, I need to check
the error mesage. A exact error message is very important during the
troubleshooting process. We can resolve the issue in an efficient way if
the error message is exact.
I'd like to provide general informaiton for your reference. I notice that
the SQL Service Account is .\MSSQL_INAME. Based on my research, the
issue may occur if the SQL Service Account is configured to use an account
other than the LocalSystem.
So the workaround is to change the startup account back to LocalSystem for
the duration of the upgrade. I suggest that you use SQL Enterprise
Manager(EM) to change the startup account . After installing SQL server
client tools on the computer, SEM is installed.
The following article is for your reference:
283811 How to change the SQL Server or SQL Server Agent Service account
without using SQL Enterprise Manager in SQL Server 2000 (283811)
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=283811
You can also use the sc.exe tool to automate the process of changing the
startup account of MSSQLSERVER service, rather than messing with the
services registry key directly:

Inserts and updated sqlserver

Hi
I have a multithreaded application. VC6++, VB6 and OLEDB. Every thread
has its own session to the database.
If I do all the inserts and do updates in one thread it works fine.
All my data is in the database.
If I split the work to be done on more than one thread it shows in the
SQL Profiler the it does the inserts and updates, but when I look in
the database not all the data was added. There were no errors logged.
Does anyone have an idea what could cause this?
Thanks

Do you insert the data in the transaction? Maybe you do not call COMMIT at
the end of it and the transaction is rolled back after the timeout.

Inserting with DTS in IDENTITY table

Hi

I need to insert values from a text-file to a table with a primary key as identity. In the text file I have no idea of the primary key values and i get "foreign key constraint violation" when trying to import null values into the column.

How can I solve the problem? With ordinary insert-statement there is no problem since the table generates identity- key values automatically. Is there a possibility to generate identity values with DTS-import?

Bjrnyes.

you just need to not map anything to the primary key column. In the wizard, you need to hit the transform button and make and under the column mappings make sure ignore is selected. If you are using the DTS desginer, you need to get rid of the mapping on your transform data task under the transformations task.

> thanks|||This would be less of a problem if you were using stored procedures. Since
you are probably sending query strings from the web page to the SQL Server,
you may be very vulnerable to SQL Injection attacks. (Write to me off line
and I will give you more information about your vulnerability.)
For the single quote, if you must store them, have the application double
(two single quotes) them before sending to SQL Server. The double quote
shouldn't be a problem -please confirm how you are experiencing the problem.
